Marc January 22, 2019 for Model Number JGBP90MEB6BC Our oven seems to take a long time to heat up on bake. I removed the bottom to check the burner. The igniter glows and the burner does light after a bit. However the flame pulsates as it runs. All the other functions and burners work fine. Any help is appreciated. Thanks. Marc
1 Answer Marc, the igniter WB13K21 should take 30-60 seconds to ignite, if it is taking longer than this, the igniter may be weakening and causing the amp draw to diminish. If the igniter does not continuously draw 2.6 amps, then the valve will engage or disengage accordingly. Read More...
Barry D. August 31, 2018 for Model Number JGB920 I turned the oven on while running a burner on the cooktop and went in other room of the house for a moment while the oven was supposed to be preheating. I heard a loud boom (shook windows) and smelled gas. I turned off the oven and have been afraid to use it since. It seems like the igniter is faulty but the gas valve could not detect and sent gas anyway and then was lit as it vented out of the oven at the cooktop?
1 Answer Hello Barry, I'm sorry but we will need to ask you to post a new question including the complete model number from your units' I.D. tag so we can recommend parts that can be guaranteed to work properly on your unit. The ignitor, bake burner, and oven safety valve should be replaced on this unit before attempting to use it again. Thank you for your patience and understanding in this matter. Read More...
Gary W June 10, 2018 for Model Number GE slide-in range Model JGSS66SEL1SS This concerns the correct broiler deflector (# WB34X28689) placement/attachment to the broiler burner (# WB16X28251) and broiler igniter glowbar (# WB13X24755). 1) Does the deflector plate sit above the little horizonatal tab at the back of the broiler burner? Or does it slide in below that tab? 2) Does the deflector plate sit above the entire glowbar protective frame? Or does it slide in so the plate is inside the upper part of the glowbar protective frame? Thank you, Gary
1 Answer Gary, The deflector plate will be above the horizontal tab and above the glowbar protective frame. Read More...
Gary W. May 31, 2018 for Model Number JGSS66SEL1SS I carefully switched out the top burner orifices and both oven and broiler orifices to the correct propane units (checked the individual orifices for the correct stamped number against the manual three times before installing each). Also flipped over the pressure regulator orifice so the LP arrow was pointed in the direction of gas flow. The top burners and oven work perfectly, the flames are steady blue with intermittent yellow tips. The broiler also works, except the for the fact it sounds like a kazoo for 5 seconds every time the gas begins to flow into the broil tube and the flames first appear. The kazoo sound then slowly fades away and the broiler flames remain. My wife doesn't want the kazoo. I replaced the broiler tube thinking the sound may have come from something wrong with the slots which made the sound when the gas passed them. The new broiler tube didn't eliminate the kazoo sound. What could be the reason for the kazoo sound on broiler startup?
1 Answer Hello Gary, This is normally generated by a gas pressure issue. You should verify the correct gas pressure to the unit and ensure that the broil orifice hood is tightened to snug at the bottom, without overtightening. Nearly 99% of complaints pertaining to a noise of a gas orifice or valve are caused by a gas over or under pressure issue. Read More...
Bob R March 09, 2017 for Model Number 362.75889891 Oven "Bake burner goes on and off, takes a long time to heat up. Ignitor works good. The Broiler burn works fine. What part would I need to replace? Maybe the "gas safety valve" or the "control valve"? or what?
1 Answer Bob, This issue will most likely be caused by a faulty control valve which is part number WB19K36. Read More...

Grizz February 15, 2016 for Model Number JGB905SEF1SS Thank you for your previous answer. Before ordering any parts I thought I'd remove the bake burner tube and see if there was anything clogged, or if there might be a hole burned in it. So I removed the door, bottom drawer, and bottom panel for access. On my particular model the bake burner tube is attached at the rear as well as the front. The rear burner screws (and the screws on the control valve) are very tough to get at. I may get them out, but I would not be able to get my fingers back there to replace them. Nor would I have enough room to properly secure the other tubes to the valve. Without removing the bake burner tube I inspected it as thorough as I could and there were no clogged holes, deformities, or burn marks. Am I missing something obvious here, or do I need to remove all the shields and guards for replacement access? Thank you.
1 Answer Grizz, With the issue that you are having, the most likely cause with the burner checking out ok would be a faulty oven gas safety valve. The part number for the valve is WB19K36. Read More...
Grizz February 09, 2016 for Model Number JGB905SEF1SS I replaced the oven igniter in 2012 when it was taking too long for the oven to heat. I replaced the broiler igniter last month when the broiler quit lighting. Both repairs solved the respective issues. But for the last 6 months or so the oven makes a "poofing" sound almost every time the oven goes on. It started out once in a while and got progressively worse. I hear a soft click like the valve is getting the signal, and then a "poof" as the gas comes back on. It does not happen in broiler mode and there are no issues with the burner jets on top. All flames throughout the range seem to flow freely and I have no other issues. I just replaced the oven igniter again because it was the cheapest option, but it did not fix the issue. It may sound strange, but if I listen very closely, sometimes it actually sounds like I can hear (what sounds like) the valve opening very slowly. I think I need a new valve control, but I am asking for your opinion. Thank you
1 Answer Hello Grizz, This can be the gas valve, a gas pressure issue, or the burner. I would have the utility board check the pressure and if no problem is there, replace the gas valve WB19K36 and bake burner WB16K10035. Read More...
Ciro November 24, 2015 for Model Number GE XL44 GAS STOVE WITH OVEN There is a gas smell coming from the oven when we open the oven door, it's very minimal. We have check all the connections with liquid soap and there aren't any leaks. We assume it has to be the safety valve, I'm I correct? I've been looking for the right part by name an model but I can't get it. I also need the oven control panel.
1 Answer Hello Ciro. Yes, it sounds like the gas valve is bad. We will need your model number to help you with this. Please call 1-877-477-7278 or post your model number with a new question on the parts page. Here is a link to help you locate it. http://www.appliancepartspros.com/modelnumber_locator.aspx Read More...
Chris December 28, 2014 for Model Number JGBP90MEB2BC Broiler works, gas stove works, oven does not. Bake just sits at 100 degrees and the igniter never glows. Any ideas?
1 Answer Hello Chris. Test for power to the igniter. If there is power there, you will need to replace the igniter. If there is no power there, you will need to replace the control on the unit. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3. Here is a link on how to use a multi-meter. http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html Read More...
